General Information |
Product name: XPRESSTRADE
|
Brief description of pricing options:
Because we've formalized agreements with all major U.S. futures exchanges to be an authorized quote vendor, every XPRESSTRADE accountholder receives free, unlimited real-time snapshot futures and option quotes. Most other online futures brokers only offer delayed data free-of-charge, and if want real-time quotes, you'll have to pay extra. At XPRESSTRADE, once you log into the secure, private side of our website, every quote you'll see is real-time. XPRESSTRADE'S Dynamic Quotes application is a real-time, streaming, fully-customizable quotewatch. There's nothing delayed about Dynamic Quotes. The product is fast, it updates automatically and continuously in real-time, and it's the next best thing to standing in the trading pit. Basically, Dynamic Quotes puts you right in the middle of a real-time trading environment. The application is offered free-of-charge to all XPRESSTRADE clients. Exchange market data fees for continuous quotes do apply, however.
